Cross-pollinating different genera
Default Cross-pollinating different genera

I've been trying to grow some seed pods. After two unsuccessful attempts I currently have only different orchids blooming; one NoID phal, one dwarf NoID phal, a miltoniopsis and several intergenerics/oncidiums that look wildly different.
I've read that self-pollination is not as effective as cross-pollination (indeed one of my two attempts was a self-pollination), but it probably outweighs the risk of sterile seeds if I cross plants that are different genera? How about crossing the dwarf phal with the full sized phal?
